Isn't that great? It's blocked from view in this shot, but it's hanging on the … [Read More...]

Well, hey there!
Today, I'm going to share some photos and information about a makeover project our family was part of recently. It doesn't feel quite right to celebrate the room reveal results like one would normally do in a "before and after" post though, because even though these previously … [Read More...]
